Hey, what do you know? We have just started 2012 but online Tech and IT news sites are not wasting any time to roll out their vision of what will become a hot trend this year.

My name is Martin and this site is a random collection of recipes and reflections about various topics covering information management, data engineering, machine learning, business intelligence and visualisation plus everything else that I fancy to categorise under the 'analytics' umbrella. I'm a native of Poland but since my university days I have lived in Melbourne, Australia and worked as a DBA, developer, data architect, technical lead and team manager. My main interests lie in both, helping clients in technical aspects of information management e.g. data modelling, systems architecture, cloud deployments as well as business-oriented strategies e.g. enterprise data solutions project management, data governance and stewardship, data security and privacy or data monetisation. On the whole, I am very fond of anything closely or remotely related to data and as long as it can be represented as a string of ones and zeros and then analysed and visualised, you've got my attention!
Outside sporadic updates to this site I typically find myself fiddling with data, spending time with my kids or a good book, the gym or watching a good movie while eating Polish sausage with Zubrowka (best served on rocks with apple juice and a lime twist). Please read on and if you find these posts of any interests, don't hesitate to leave me a comment!
